nathan, why?

Nathan should have at least gone on The Voice. This 30 sec X Factor treatment is a lil...sad. 

The real tea is that Nathan is really 28. *sips tea* 

HAHAHAHAHAHAA NAH MY TL WHEN NATHAN CAME ON ������������������������������

Woah  on ! Who next?!

First it was nathan, then starboy nathan, what next. Nathan X

Wait.. What the? Nathan? But.. Oh.

Is that Nathan ? Like Nathan nathan.. Who has a song with wretch and florida? Smh

Just switched over to  to see the fame hungry Nathan but am now seeing the ultimate sob story...HOMELESS?

Who the heck is next up. Marvin and Tamera? Lisa Roxanne? Keisha White????  

The Urban viewers aren't even paying attention to this homeless audition. Still shocked by Nathan reduced to 

Nathan has always been a talented singer and made some good music. Its just never really happened for him. I hope it does one day.

Rapology > Big Brother > XFactor. Hope it works for him, cah boy, I don't know what will happen

I guess if you've been trying to break the mainstream as long as he has; auditioning for  makes sense when runners up are charting

The way everyones goin in on nathen for bein on xfactor! Hey gotta do what u gotta do sometimes! 

RT : But I thought he re-invented himself and called himself star-boy Nathan...*sniggers*

To be fair, though, it's clearly Nathan's dream to be successful. Should he be blamed for not sitting & rotting and instead trying to "win"

I think one of the problems Nathan faces is that he don't look like a star...

Now they allow acts with professional management to audition, I expect to see more and more 'hoodstablished' artists on the

LOL!! "Why is Nathan" is now trending World Wide!☺ 
[click here for the trend]

No. I find it ludicrous&unfathomable that Nathan has chosen to audition for X Factor. When fame doesn't want you get the message & leave it.

If Nathan gets through to the live shows I'm going to vote for him. Takes a lot of guts to do what he did. All the best to him! 

I liked Nathan's audition. If this is the route he wants to take??

Still though FunDmental on Dizzee's Sky 1 talent show will NEVER be topped. Dizzee was like 'I know them and I'm still saying no'.

Nathan released some decent music and can sing. It actually pisses me off to see him on this show.

Everyone is asking why Nathan is  like he's popping out here...


Fyi.. I'm an independent artist since I was 17.. There is NO major Label involved in my project :)


Starboy nathan is trending worldwide THANK U I LOVE U.. THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING OF SOMETHING SPECIAL YURRRR


I've never had an ego, that's what made the decision to do it easy. Yurrrrr 

a lot of ppl said they wouldn't if they were me, but I still have heard I good reason why not to 

ignore everyone saying 'oh why did you go on the xfactor?' if there's a opportunity out there go grab it with both hands!:D

EVERYONE THINKS I'm SIGNED LOOOL

"So Marvin Sparks, what effect will afrobeats have on bashment"

"What effect will afrobeats have on bashment?" Something I was asked recently. I've seen tweets like "bashment is dead now", "afrobeats is taking over", "I'm glad afrobeats has killed bashment" and "remember bashment?" So, I thought "Lemme weigh in on this". Haven't brought out the opinionated Marvin Sparks around here for a while so here he is... [please note: I said "the opinionated Marvin Sparks", meaning this is all my opinion based on my findings and observations. If you disagree, feel free to comment. I'll accept anything positive or negative. Tell me to suck any of my family members and it's a war ting though. Calm.]

First and foremost, this is a stupid, premature debate, hence why I held back from entertaining it on Twitter. I've bitten the bait a couple of times to correct those who should know better, but kept quiet apart from that. Throughout this post I will demonstrate that the only foundation for this "debate" is that the black community in London is largely represented by Africans and Jamaicans and the rivalry/jealousy that comes with it.

Now I already know some will call this biased because they say I'm the UK's leading dancehall correspondent, hating or whatever means to deny the truth, but I'm gonna go ahead anyway. I've been down that road before (namely UK funky live review & Sway's new song: Do we care?). Annoyed me at first 'cos they were actually pretty accurate, then I realised denial (calling people "haterz") is an easy way to diffuse "the ether, the stuff that make your soul burn slow". And in both posts Marvin Sparks' words came to pass... (p.s. I also wrote this about the day dubstep took over UK funky and Labrinth vs Talay Riley vs Loick Essien triple threat/hell in the cell match. Both those came to pass as well...)

Anyway, back to the matter at hand, afrobeats "vs." bashment. Check out the piece by pressing read more (in case you didn't see it)
